New comment by SwellJoe in "Ending PHP Support, and the Future of Hack"

PHP is still more widely deployed for small/medium websites than any other language. WordPress still powers more websites than any other single application, for example.

Facebook was always an anomaly in supporting/using PHP at that scale. PHP was never a major player in very large companies...until facebook. I think this is a return to the mean, rather than a seismic shift in a new direction.

That's not to say PHP isn't fading...it is. But, I don't think this is a huge hit to PHP.
